Carol Baskin

Bhagavan Antle

Jeff Lowe

James Garretson

...host of criminals and personality disordered individuals

Tiger King is a documentary covering the ownership, exploitation, and abuse of exotic animals in America. It also covers the rather unbelievable lives of the owners of these exotic pets who’s lifestyles often seem scripted as they incorporate Tigers, drugs, polygamy, Murder for hire, and running for political office among other things. Also since it is easily the highest rated show at the moment and the one everyone has been talking about since we all have been quarantined in our homes.

  • The question on everyone’s mind. Did Carole Baskin kill her husband?
  • Who do you hate more Carole Baskin or Jeff Lowe
  • How are you anti big cat private zoo and own one yourself
  • Who was your favorite character? Who do you think was the most fucked up in the head?
  • Do you have any sympathy for Joe Exotic or any of the other main characters? Who do you have sympathy for?
  • Would you buy a baby Tiger for 2k?
  • How much of this documentary do you believe in that some of the footage they have is insanely lucky to have been shot (Like Joe’s 2nd husband accidentally shooting himself in the head). Was a lot of the conclusions the producers led us toward forced or fake?

    • Westworld Episode 4: The Mother of Exiles

    Title is pretty self explanatory after watching this episode. All of our main characters are trying to figure each other out, and the audience is just trying to figure out what the hell is happening.

    • Charlotte goes to meet William AKA The Man in Black to ask for his help in taking the company private
    • Dolores and Caleb steal all of Liam Dempsey’s money before trying to kidnap him.
    • Bernard and Stubbs want to kidnap Liam because they think Dolores replaced him with a host.
    • Maeve is sent by Serock to track down and kill Dolores and this takes her to Musashi the leader of the Yakuza crime syndicate.

      • All of this culminates in a beautiful 3rd act where we find out who all of the hosts are. They are all copies of Dolores inhabiting other hosts bodies. William ends up at the center of the maze, broken, alone, and still trying to figure out who he is.

      • What do you think of the episodes big reveal? They are all Dolores. Does it make sense? Is it an earned reveal in which we can believe that they are all Dolores? Where is this story heading now that we have had all the characters run into each other in violent fashion?
      • What will happen with William? Trailers reveal his story is not over, but it certainly seemed like it at the end of this episode. And is he him?
